Written for biologists
and medical researchers who don't have any special training in data analysis
and statistics, Guide to Analysis of DNA Microarray Data, Second Edition
begins where DNA array equipment leaves off: the image produced by the
microarray. The text deals with the questions that arise starting at this
point, providing an introduction to microarray technology, then moving
on to image analysis, data analysis, cluster analysis, and beyond.
With all chapters rewritten, updated, and expanded to include the latest
generation of technology and methods, Guide to Analysis of DNA Microarray
Data, Second Edition offers practitioners reliable information using concrete
examples and a clear, comprehensible style. This Second Edition features
entirely new chapters on:
- Image analysis
- Experiment design
- Automated analysis,
integrated analysis, and systems biology
- Interpretation of results
Intended for readers seeking practical applications, this text covers a broad spectrum of proven approaches in this rapidly growing technology. Additional features include further reading suggestions for each chapter, as well as a thorough review of available analysis software.
